CelTk
Create a Jabber IM client library with Celtk, a portable Common Lisp GUI with Cells Inside (tm).
It is build atop of Tcl/Tk, thus providing comprehensive portable toolkit
The idea is not to have another Jabber client, the idea -- as with all libraries -- is to have a Lisp library to use in a Lisp application that wants to do peer-peer real-time communication.
For example (and why I am interested) i could add Jabber to my Algebra application (and quite a bit more) and then have two users (two students, or a human tutor and a student, communicating in real-time from within my application.
So the idea is for me or any application to be able to leverage the Jabber framework from within a Lisp application to achieve peer-peer.
Someone else might start from a mere jabber/celtk application and then do something else, such as create a virtual cocktail lounge.
